2018-2019 SCR Leaders

Regional President

Lili Steel

Hello South Coast Region! My name is Lili Steel and I live in sunny San Luis Obispo. I love FFA and do not think any other leadership organization offers high school students so many great opportunities for growth and learning. I am incredibly interested in science and aim to shape my future towards a career in science research. I moved from Australia to the Central Coast three years ago and I'm loving the California lifestyle. In my free time I can be found swimming, hiking, at the beach, or spending time with my dogs! I am so excited ​ to serve South Coast Region in the up-coming year!

Since my introduction to FFA I have embraced the opportunities that the program has to offer. Now I strive to positively impact the members of our organization in the same way that inspired me, through service. In my spare time I enjoy the outdoors through my Boy Scout Troop 799. Throughout all activities, 80's music is a must! I passionately look forward to the future.

My SAE projects include raising livestock animals such as goats and pigs for county fairs. While I'm not competing in public speaking contests or practicing for poultry judging you can find me in many places. These usually include the beach or the snow, watching the food network at my house, or cruising my jeep wrangler around Hollister jamming to music. My passion for this organization stems from meeting so many amazing and inspiring individuals that have impacted my life. I am so grateful to have the opportunity to serve this amazing region!
